what is considered box office for 472 00:20:04,250 --> 00:20:02,880 tabloids in the media you know it's like 473 00:20:08,270 --> 00:20:04,260 my name 474 00:20:08,930 --> 00:20:08,280 shifted copy

since then that light has moved on 482 00:20:29,870 --> 00:20:27,660 and gone on to other people and also the 483 00:20:32,570 --> 00:20:29,880 culture is different now since there's 484 00:20:36,470 --> 00:20:32,580 been inquiries about 485 00:20:39,409 --> 00:20:36,480 how and what the business does and how 486 00:20:41,270 --> 00:20:39,419 it goes about doing it the people that 487 00:20:43,669 --> 00:20:41,280 do that stuff have had to behave in a 488 00:20:46,750 --> 00:20:43,679 different way so there's still things 489 00:20:50,650 --> 00:20:46,760 happening to people out there that are 490 00:20:53,390 --> 00:20:50,660 dreadfully unkind and illegal 491 00:20:57,110 --> 00:20:53,400 but it happens in a different way now 492 00:20:58,370 --> 00:20:57,120 and what happens for me as a 49 year old 493 00:21:01,010 --> 00:20:58,380 pop star 494 00:21:04,250 --> 00:21:01,020 you know it's incredibly 495 00:21:05,210 --> 00:21:04,260 I can deal with it you know it's 496 00:21:07,730

I would say from 96 to 502 00:21:26,820 --> 00:21:32,169 you know it was just I became a hermit 503 00:21:37,490 --> 00:21:34,909 2005. is this when you're wearing that 504 00:21:42,590 --> 00:21:37,500 I'm a couple I bought a cashmere caftan 505 00:21:45,049 --> 00:21:42,600 I grew a beard because I I saw um I saw 506 00:21:46,610 --> 00:21:45,059 when Paul McCartney left the Beatles

00:27:34,860 very incredibly Niche you know it makes 623 00:27:39,490 --> 00:27:37,260 you feel as though you're in a gang 624 00:27:42,529 --> 00:27:39,500 right yeah yeah 625 00:27:45,649 -->

00:28:01,440 it that's where he ends on it and I just 634 00:28:05,330 --> 00:28:03,720 you know the idea that we would maybe 635 00:28:07,909 --> 00:28:05,340 we've had experiences that we can 636 00:28:09,409 --> 00:28:07,919 explain and as you say people like to 637 00:28:11,630 --> 00:28:09,419 Market and that kind of thing what 638 00:28:13,730 --> 00:28:11,640 George has done all these years was 639 00:28:15,230 --> 00:28:13,740 provide a way that people could talk 640 00:28:17,450 --> 00:28:15,240 about it and just say this happened to 641 00:28:19,130 --> 00:28:17,460 me I I can't explain it but this 642 00:28:20,450 --> 00:28:19,140 happened to me and you know most people 643 00:28:22,250 --> 00:28:20,460 are being honest that something happened 644 00:28:23,750 --> 00:28:22,260 to them that that is more common that 645 00:28:27,049 --> 00:28:23,760 people are being honest but just having 646 00:28:28,909 --> 00:28:27,059 it heard and listened to and not 647 00:28:31,390 --> 00:28:28,919 ridiculed not mocked but like what what 648 00:28:33,830 --> 00:28:31,400 is up with this something is up it 649 00:28:35,750 --> 00:28:33,840 affected a lot of people in a lot of 650 00:28:37,669 --> 00:28:35,760 ways you know that you gave that that 651 00:28:40,490 --> 00:28:37,679 form and that platform it did for me too 652 00:28:43,490 --> 00:28:40,500 for sure so you have had some 653 00:28:46,510 --> 00:28:43,500 experiences that you can't explain and 654 00:28:49,070 --> 00:28:46,520 so have I and and people have and and 655 00:28:52,610 --> 00:28:49,080

it's like where where 659 00:29:03,350 --> 00:28:59,220 does this first come from chicken or egg 660 00:29:06,950 --> 00:29:03,360 chicken or egg and why are you so 661 00:29:09,950 --> 00:29:06,960 motivated to it's it's my everyday you 662 00:29:13,130 --> 00:29:09,960 know I'm checking in with UFO Twitter or 663 00:29:15,769 --> 00:29:13,140 you are checking in with you guys or you 664

00:29:31,700 uh scarily I would say for the last 671 00:29:38,090 --> 00:29:34,679 three to four years of sort of clamp 672 00:29:39,889 --> 00:29:38,100 down on the oddest stuff the fringiest 673 00:29:42,590 --> 00:29:39,899 of Fringe stuff 674 00:29:46,870 --> 00:29:42,600 and you have to go other other places to 675 00:29:50,450 --> 00:29:46,880 seek it out now uh but from like 676 00:29:52,669 --> 00:29:50,460 2005 2006 when it was the Wild Wild West 677 00:29:55,970 --> 00:29:52,679 on the internet 678 00:29:59,990 --> 00:29:55,980 um you know it was a wonderful place to 679 00:30:03,830 --> 00:30:00,000 go and listen to and where I stand on it 680 00:30:05,870 --> 00:30:03,840 all is my my mind is my mind is open and 681 00:30:08,149 --> 00:30:05,880 everything is on the table everything is 682 00:30:12,169 --> 00:30:08,159 on the table you know 683 00:30:15,649 --> 00:30:12,179 um I don't believe in anything you know 684 00:30:17,330 --> 00:30:15,659 but um if people want to come and say 685 00:30:19,190 --> 00:30:17,340 that this happened to them I'll go oh 686 00:30:21,169 --> 00:30:19,200 well that's interesting you know but but 687 00:30:23,029 -->

690 00:30:28,789 --> 00:30:27,299 think this and we you know this is 691 00:30:31,130 --> 00:30:28,799 definitely happening because nobody 692 00:30:32,630 --> 00:30:31,140 knows you're right it remains a mystery 693 00:30:34,490 --> 00:30:32,640 a lot of us but you you've had a couple 694 00:30:36,649 --> 00:30:34,500 experiences that when you've told them 695 00:30:41,769 --> 00:30:36,659 to me that there was there was so 696 00:30:47,210 --> 00:30:45,049 no no well no which one the two big 697 00:30:51,350 --> 00:30:47,220 stories there's like two big stories 698 00:30:53,810 --> 00:30:51,360 many many many like that's odd you know 699 00:30:55,850 --> 00:30:53,820 Chicken and the Egg first back to that 700 00:30:58,789 --> 00:30:55,860 it's like where does this all come from 701 00:31:01,430 --> 00:30:58,799 so I grew up and just outside of my 702 00:31:03,470 --> 00:31:01,440 mother's bedroom was a book a shelf of 703 00:31:05,889 --> 00:31:03,480 books and 704 00:31:09,710 --> 00:31:05,899 um and those books was 705 00:31:11,630 --> 00:31:09,720 folklore and fairy tales and I think my 706 00:31:13,490 --> 00:31:11,640 mom considered herself or considered 707 00:31:15,710 --> 00:31:13,500 herself somewhat of a white witch and 708 00:31:17,330 --> 00:31:15,720 this was all of his interesting books 709 00:31:19,190 --> 00:31:17,340 that 710 00:31:22,070 --> 00:31:19,200 um a mind expanding 711 00:31:24,769 --> 00:31:22,080 and then my grandma's there was like 712 00:31:26,690 --> 00:31:24,779 books like UFOs over London and like I 713 00:31:28,789 --> 00:31:26,700 just I can see the the cover of this 714 00:31:30,769 --> 00:31:28,799 book now and I'd probably be my son's 715 00:31:33,590 --> 00:31:30,779 age eight or nine 716 00:31:36,230 --> 00:31:33,600 and then you you know so your your mind 717 00:31:39,529 --> 00:31:36,240 is open to something else existing but 718 00:31:42,110 --> 00:31:39,539 then also you know I was raised Roman 719 00:31:44,810 --> 00:31:42,120 Catholic and there was this miracle man 720 00:31:48,430 --> 00:31:44,820 that walked on water fed a lot of people 721 00:31:52,310 --> 00:31:48,440 you know with scampi and um 722 00:31:53,389 --> 00:31:52,320 it's uh so from from day one there's 723 00:31:57,769 --> 00:31:53,399 this 724 00:32:00,769 --> 00:31:57,779 thing that exists 725 00:32:02,750 --> 00:32:00,779 and um I'll tell you the stories so 726 00:32:03,950 --> 00:32:02,760 there's two two big stories and 727 00:32:05,210 --> 00:32:03,960 basically 728 00:32:08,990 --> 00:32:05,220 you know 729 00:32:11,510 --> 00:32:09,000 I I've never felt closer to the woo than 730 00:32:13,970 --> 00:32:11,520 I do in Los Angeles there's something 731 00:32:17,450 --> 00:32:13,980 about being in Los Angeles even though 732 00:32:20,450 --> 00:32:17,460 you know we had a house in the UK and it 733 00:32:22,549 --> 00:32:20,460 was a thousand years old and uh 734 00:32:24,950 --> 00:32:22,559 wheelchair yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah 735 00:32:28,370 --> 00:32:24,960 when we went to see it at the bottom of 736 00:32:30,529 --> 00:32:28,380 the drive that day there was a uh crop 737 00:32:31,970 --> 00:32:30,539 circle there's a crop circle at the 738 00:32:34,850 --> 00:32:31,980 bottom of the drive and you have a giant 739 00:32:38,690 --> 00:32:34,860 figure like in your backyard yeah oh my 740 00:32:41,510 --> 00:32:38,700 this huge huge figure and um it's more 741 00:32:43,610 --> 00:32:41,520 of a castle than a home well no it used 742 00:32:46,190 --> 00:32:43,620 to be a castle till it but what happened 743 00:32:49,250 --> 00:32:46,200 was they brought in this window tax I 744 00:32:51,169 --> 00:32:49,260 think like in the 18th century you know 745 00:32:52,970 --> 00:32:51,179 the internet will tell me if I'm right 746 00:32:57,169 --> 00:32:52,980 or wrong but they bought in this window 747 00:32:59,810 --> 00:32:57,179 tax and how many windows you have is how 748 00:33:01,430 --> 00:32:59,820 much you're taxed so they burnt the 749 00:33:04,610 --> 00:33:01,440 castle down they burnt their own castle 750 00:33:06,110 --> 00:33:04,620 down I I guess uh because you know they 751 00:33:08,090 --> 00:33:06,120 couldn't afford the tax on their own 752 00:33:11,149 --> 00:33:08,100 windows but what they did leave up was 753 00:33:15,049 --> 00:33:11,159 the barn and the Barn's huge the barn 754 00:33:18,769 --> 00:33:15,059 was like 20 000 square foot so we owned 755 00:33:21,769 --> 00:33:18,779 the barn and it was where Catherine Parr 756 00:33:24,830 --> 00:33:21,779 Henry VIII's wife used to live and and 757 00:33:28,730 --> 00:33:24,840 keep horses so even though 758 00:33:31,370 --> 00:33:28,740 I lived on land that is 759 00:33:33,169 --> 00:33:31,380 you know over a thousand years old with 760 00:33:34,970 --> 00:33:33,179 it with its own forest it's over a 761 00:33:38,389 --> 00:33:34,980 thousand

00:33:42,299 there was a ghost there I never I never 765 00:33:46,610 --> 00:33:44,340 noticed any of it 766 00:33:49,850 --> 00:33:46,620 um I've never felt more closer to the 767 00:33:53,029 -->

right 810 00:35:53,569 --> 00:35:51,540 but what was interesting was the fact 811 00:35:55,430 --> 00:35:53,579 that that's incredibly interesting by 812 00:35:57,650 --> 00:35:55,440 itself the other interesting thing was 813 00:36:01,790 --> 00:35:57,660 this was at the Beverly Hills Hotel 814 00:36:03,829 --> 00:36:01,800 at half past 10 which is a very uh you 815 00:36:07,310 --> 00:36:03,839

chaos I'd rather have it 1221 00:53:28,670 --> 00:53:24,540 be the Illuminati than it be just chaos 1222 00:53:29,930 --> 00:53:28,680 because chaos petrifies me if you have a 1223 00:53:32,569 --> 00:53:29,940 hidden hand 1224 00:53:35,089 --> 00:53:32,579 that's running everything then you can 1225 00:53:37,250 --> 00:53:35,099 put it in a box but when it's chaos it's 1226 00:53:40,670 --> 00:53:37,260 something else completely 1227 00:53:43,309 --> 00:53:40,680 um I do think the truth lies in a gray 1228 00:53:46,910 --> 00:53:43,319 margin you know the more 1229 00:53:50,930 --> 00:53:46,920 the more and more I think about it if 1230 00:53:54,049 --> 00:53:50,940 the gene exists if Spirits exists if 1231 00:53:56,089 --> 00:53:54,059 good exists if bad exists 1232 00:54:00,589 --> 00:53:56,099 if angels exist 1233 00:54:03,589 --> 00:54:00,599 if there is a hidden hand 1234 00:54:08,150 --> 00:54:03,599 um then I believe it exists on a more 1235 00:54:11,390 --> 00:54:08,160 ethereal plane than a group of very rich 1236 00:54:14,030 --> 00:54:11,400 people running things that being said 1237 00:54:17,450 --> 00:54:14,040 you know I do 1238 00:54:19,309

just kind of 1398 01:01:11,030 --> 01:01:09,420 cool we were both feeling like what is 1399 01:01:13,490 --> 01:01:11,040 it going to be like to be there together 1400 01:01:14,930 --> 01:01:13,500 is there going to be some experience we 1401 01:01:17,450 --> 01:01:14,940 were kind of using Robbie as bait 1402 01:01:19,609 --> 01:01:17,460 because he seems tapped in in some way 1403 01:01:21,530 --> 01:01:19,619 to these odd experiences we figured 1404 01:01:23,930 --> 01:01:21,540 throw him in as bait see if something 1405 01:01:26,510 --> 01:01:23,940 occurs I was honestly I was just cool to 1406 01:01:28,010 --> 01:01:26,520 go there as friends and and have that 1407 01:01:29,630 --> 01:01:28,020 time together 1408 01:01:30,890 --> 01:01:29,640 um you know we did feel a little spooked 1409 01:01:32,510 --> 01:01:30,900 out at times as we're walking through 1410 01:01:35,809 --> 01:01:32,520 the dark just like in the middle of 1411 01:01:37,549 --> 01:01:35,819 nowhere uh what was it like for you just 1412 01:01:39,170 --> 01:01:37,559 you know going to this place where 1413 01:01:43,309 --> 01:01:39,180 Anything could happen that was the idea 1414 01:01:48,430 --> 01:01:43,319 okay well well yeah oh [\h__\h] yeah yeah 1415 01:01:55,069 --> 01:01:52,130 first of all you know is like 1416 01:01:57,289 --> 01:01:55,079 with UFOs with you and with you and 1417 01:01:59,030 --> 01:01:57,299 we've become friends yeah you know it's 1418 01:02:01,309 --> 01:01:59,040 equivalent of 1419 01:02:03,530 --> 01:02:01,319 falling in love with the soccer team and 1420 01:02:05,750 --> 01:02:03,540 then being being able to be friends with 1421 01:02:08,109 --> 01:02:05,760 the players I say soccer football people 1422 01:02:10,490 --> 01:02:08,119 in England I get really angry with me 1423 01:02:12,770 --> 01:02:10,500 and then being friends with the players 1424 01:02:14,510 --> 01:02:12,780 all of a sudden and like I'm friends 1425 01:02:16,970 --> 01:02:14,520 with my favorite football team your 1426 01:02:18,950 --> 01:02:16,980 mummy you're my mate I have respect for 1427 01:02:21,049 --> 01:02:18,960 you I've a huge respect for you I have 1428 01:02:25,250 --> 01:02:21,059 huge respect for you and then all of a 1429 01:02:27,170 --> 01:02:25,260 sudden you know we get to actually go to 1430 01:02:29,089 --> 01:02:27,180 the equivalent of stepping on the field 1431 01:02:32,510 --> 01:02:29,099 at Old Trafford or stepping on the field 1432 01:02:35,150 --> 01:02:32,520 at anfield or the burnabout or wherever 1433 01:02:37,970 --> 01:02:35,160 by going to Skinwalker Ranch and as you 1434 01:02:41,030 --> 01:02:37,980 know it's like the child in me is 1435 01:02:43,789 --> 01:02:41,040 thrilled and honored at the opportunity 1436 01:02:47,450 --> 01:02:43,799 to get to do that with with the players 1437 01:02:57,710 --> 01:02:47,460 you know we were parked man yeah we were 1438 01:03:02,210 --> 01:02:59,809 does this bring back memories to your 1439 01:03:04,190 --> 01:03:02,220 first trip to the ranch 1440 01:03:05,930 --> 01:03:04,200 well yeah I mean the only other time we 1441 01:03:07,670 --> 01:03:05,940 did this was the first trip that I ever 1442 01:03:09,589 --> 01:03:07,680 made here and we built the fire and we 1443 01:03:11,329 --> 01:03:09,599 made a bunch of noise did kind of the 1444 01:03:13,490 --> 01:03:11,339 kind of things that this group has been 1445 01:03:16,069 --> 01:03:13,500 doing today and yesterday and tried to 1446 01:03:19,789 --> 01:03:16,079 uh attract the attention of something 1447 01:03:22,190 --> 01:03:19,799 it didn't work and you know 1448 01:03:23,809 --> 01:03:22,200 whatever that's here it plays by its own 1449 01:03:26,390 --> 01:03:23,819 rules it shows you 1450 01:03:28,309 --> 01:03:26,400 what it wants to when it wants to for 1451 01:03:29,990 --> 01:03:28,319 nids when they came in they came in like 1452 01:03:31,430 --> 01:03:30,000 gangbusters and there was a debate 1453 01:03:33,410 --> 01:03:31,440 should they 1454 01:03:35,150 --> 01:03:33,420 try a technical approach scientific 1455 01:03:39,170 --> 01:03:35,160 approach or should they maybe back off 1456 01:03:41,569 --> 01:03:39,180 contact Shaman psychics remote viewers 1457 01:03:43,730 --> 01:03:41,579 they end up bringing a lot of technical 1458 01:03:45,950 --> 01:03:43,740 expertise and Equipment scientific 1459 01:03:47,390 --> 01:03:45,960 measuring equipment to try to figure out 1460 01:03:49,849 --> 01:03:47,400 what's out here 1461 01:03:52,010 --> 01:03:49,859 and basically science got its ass kicked 1462 01:03:54,170 --> 01:03:52,020 because it was unable to come up with 1463 01:03:55,370 --> 01:03:54,180 any answers whatsoever collected a lot 1464 01:03:57,230 --> 01:03:55,380 of information 1465 01:04:00,349 --> 01:03:57,240 but the phenomena itself always seemed 1466 01:04:03,950 --> 01:04:00,359 to be one step ahead of of the team that 1467 01:04:08,210 --> 01:04:05,870 yeah you know I don't know whatever is 1468 01:04:09,289 --> 01:04:08,220 here it toys with whomever is trying to 1469 01:04:11,450 --> 01:04:09,299 figure it out 1470 01:04:12,650 --> 01:04:11,460 I mean it plays games it messes with 1471 01:04:14,089 --> 01:04:12,660 your mind 1472 01:04:16,010 --> 01:04:14,099 it seems to know what you're going to do 1473 01:04:18,109 --> 01:04:16,020 before you do it and it gives you 1474 01:04:20,329 --> 01:04:18,119 glimpses only when you don't expect it 1475 01:04:21,829 --> 01:04:20,339 and you're not ready for it and um 1476 01:04:23,569 --> 01:04:21,839 so I don't know if anybody's ever going 1477 01:04:25,609 --> 01:04:23,579 to be able to figure it out 1478 01:04:27,410 --> 01:04:25,619 but it's a it's it maybe that's the 1479 01:04:29,210 --> 01:04:27,420 point of it it's a learning curve you 1480 01:04:30,829 --> 01:04:29,220 know it's it's meant to be the challenge 1481 01:04:33,470 --> 01:04:30,839 the Journey of getting there as opposed 1482 01:04:35,329 --> 01:04:33,480 to figuring out the final answer 1483 01:04:36,950 --> 01:04:35,339 and and you know there there's a 1484 01:04:38,690 --> 01:04:36,960 suggestion from what's here is all these 1485 01:04:40,789 --> 01:04:38,700 different phenomena that you wouldn't 1486 01:04:43,309 --> 01:04:40,799 normally associate with each other UFOs 1487 01:04:45,289 --> 01:04:43,319 and Poltergeist Poltergeist and Bigfoot 1488 01:04:47,270 --> 01:04:45,299 Bigfoot and Cattlemen relations all 1489 01:04:48,770 --> 01:04:47,280 those things in one place it's almost 1490 01:04:50,690 --> 01:04:48,780 like it's telling us they're all related 1491 01:04:52,849 --> 01:04:50,700 on some level and it's up to you to 1492 01:04:54,890 --> 01:04:52,859 figure it out 1493 01:04:56,930 --> 01:04:54,900 I mean so I've been out here you know a 1494 01:04:59,510 --> 01:04:56,940 number of times with you and I've really 1495 01:05:01,609 --> 01:04:59,520 had nothing but I wanted to have an 1496 01:05:02,930 --> 01:05:01,619 experience that was was not good to be 1497 01:05:04,430 --> 01:05:02,940 honest with you I did because I wanted 1498 01:05:06,230 --> 01:05:04,440 to see for myself but I've only had 1499 01:05:08,510 --> 01:05:06,240 really good experience I tried to trick 1500 01:05:11,089 --> 01:05:08,520 myself into feeling like ooh something's 1501 01:05:13,430 --> 01:05:11,099 terrifying but I've just felt good 1502 01:05:14,870 --> 01:05:13,440 you brought a bunch more people out this 1503 01:05:16,430 --> 01:05:14,880 time I mean it's your guys first time 1504 01:05:17,990 --> 01:05:16,440 and every time is different I'll admit 1505 01:05:20,390 --> 01:05:18,000 that for sure every time it's different 1506 01:05:22,130 --> 01:05:20,400 and I know you mark you wanted to come 1507 01:05:24,470 --> 01:05:22,140 for 20 years to this place because of 1508 01:05:26,329 --> 01:05:24,480 the stories about it and Robbie it's 1509 01:05:28,789 --> 01:05:26,339 your first time and we talked before and 1510 01:05:30,530 --> 01:05:28,799 it was like we didn't know like maybe a 1511 01:05:33,170 --> 01:05:30,540 little scary but you didn't expect to 1512 01:05:36,470 --> 01:05:33,180 see anything but it'd be cool if you did 1513 01:05:38,750 --> 01:05:36,480 my question would be to you is have you 1514 01:05:40,510 --> 01:05:38,760 ever been to Hell I'm assuming what you 1515 01:05:43,250 --> 01:05:40,520 mean by that is like 1516 01:05:46,609 --> 01:05:43,260 personal hell what's my darkest moment 1517 01:05:49,250 --> 01:05:46,619 have I felt that depth of Despair and 1518 01:05:50,990 --> 01:05:49,260 I'd say I think everybody has had those 1519 01:05:52,490 --> 01:05:51,000 moments if they've lived a life but I 1520 01:05:54,410 --> 01:05:52,500 don't know the level of that despair 1521 01:05:58,010 --> 01:05:54,420 compared to yours or someone else's but 1522 01:06:00,230 --> 01:05:58,020 I have recovered from that and so for me 1523 01:06:02,510 --> 01:06:00,240 it's like in the sense 1524 01:06:04,849 --> 01:06:02,520 of saying yes but I don't know how it 1525 01:06:06,650 --> 01:06:04,859 equates to yours because I for me 1526 01:06:09,230 --> 01:06:06,660 personally you know I've had um 1527 01:06:12,170 --> 01:06:09,240 difficulties with substance abuse etc 1528 01:06:15,289 --> 01:06:12,180 etc and found myself in places that I 1529 01:06:18,910 --> 01:06:15,299 would deem to be hell on Earth for 1530 01:06:20,690 --> 01:06:18,920 quite a length of time and um 1531 01:06:22,430 --> 01:06:20,700 my 1532 01:06:25,430 --> 01:06:22,440 um reservation 1533 01:06:27,589 --> 01:06:25,440 would be if it was just scary I could 1534 01:06:29,089 --> 01:06:27,599 deal with that but if I have a 1535 01:06:31,010 --> 01:06:29,099 hitchhiker 1536 01:06:32,690 --> 01:06:31,020 that comes on and 1537 01:06:34,609 --> 01:06:32,700 takes me over 1538 01:06:37,730 --> 01:06:34,619 I I couldn't deal with that so I'm 1539 01:06:39,470 --> 01:06:37,740 scared of that but we do have a say in 1540 01:06:40,910 --> 01:06:39,480 in England and it's in for a penny and 1541 01:06:42,890 --> 01:06:40,920 for a pound I'm 1542 01:06:46,250 --> 01:06:42,900 I'm here so I might as well and I 1543 01:06:48,950 --> 01:06:46,260 survived the last one but only just 1544 01:06:50,809 --> 01:06:48,960 openly just we all talk about evidence 1545 01:06:52,430 --> 01:06:50,819 like you know I'm making a film about 1546 01:06:54,410 --> 01:06:52,440 this and everybody was what's the 1547 01:06:56,029 --> 01:06:54,420 evidence I want to see the evidence well 1548 01:06:58,309 --> 01:06:56,039 what is evidence too is evidence of 1549 01:07:00,529 --> 01:06:58,319 photograph is it a video you know what 1550 01:07:03,109 --> 01:07:00,539 is evidence to you well to me a lot of 1551 01:07:05,750 --> 01:07:03,119 what I have is witness testimony witness 1552 01:07:07,730 --> 01:07:05,760 testimony is evidence we use it in court 1553 01:07:09,890 --> 01:07:07,740 it is something that I find most 1554 01:07:12,049 --> 01:07:09,900 compelling depending upon the witness so 1555 01:07:13,910 --> 01:07:12,059 my question is from what you guys have 1556 01:07:16,730 --> 01:07:13,920 seen from witness testimony on this trip 1557 01:07:18,770 --> 01:07:16,740 especially you Robbie today do you find 1558 01:07:20,870 --> 01:07:18,780 that as evidence do you find that 1559 01:07:23,390 --> 01:07:20,880 compelling what people have told you on 1560 01:07:25,630 --> 01:07:23,400 this trip I find it compelling but I 1561 01:07:28,609 --> 01:07:25,640 found it I find it also 1562 01:07:30,890 --> 01:07:28,619 I find it the way that when I relate my 1563 01:07:32,750 --> 01:07:30,900 stories about what's happened to me you 1564 01:07:36,770 --> 01:07:32,760 know as uh 1565 01:07:38,390 --> 01:07:36,780 nobody takes what I say home as evidence 1566 01:07:41,809 --> 01:07:38,400 that something happened 1567 01:07:45,950 --> 01:07:41,819 I wouldn't be here if I didn't 1568 01:07:48,109 --> 01:07:45,960 believe that there was some source of 1569 01:07:50,990 --> 01:07:48,119 extra activity out of the Realms of what 1570 01:07:54,130 --> 01:07:51,000 we understand do I take it home you know 1571 01:08:01,309 --> 01:07:58,609 ish but not yes yeah ish and I guess um 1572 01:08:03,170 --> 01:08:01,319 does there become a point where 1573 01:08:05,270 --> 01:08:03,180 for example just the ranch the stories 1574 01:08:08,029 --> 01:08:05,280 at the ranch a lot of witness testimony 1575 01:08:09,829 --> 01:08:08,039 is is on this does that stack of paper 1576 01:08:13,010 --> 01:08:09,839 does that testimony be at some point 1577 01:08:14,450 --> 01:08:13,020 become so weighty that it just has value 1578 01:08:16,189 --> 01:08:14,460 you know and that's that's something I'm 1579 01:08:17,749 --> 01:08:16,199 struggling with you know being an 1580 01:08:19,370 --> 01:08:17,759 outsider after you've been married about 1581 01:08:20,689 --> 01:08:19,380 20 years that's that that's the thing 1582 01:08:22,430 --> 01:08:20,699 you know like the boom of the internet 1583 01:08:24,590 --> 01:08:22,440 and all the information that you collect 1584 01:08:26,809 --> 01:08:24,600 just by being obsessed with this kind of 1585 01:08:29,510 --> 01:08:26,819 thing is you can collect too much 1586 01:08:33,370 --> 01:08:29,520 information and then you have to uh 1587 01:08:36,550 --> 01:08:33,380 disseminate

01:09:07,309 --> 01:09:04,380 to get to for 25 years ever since George 1600 01:09:09,709 --> 01:09:07,319 first brought it to the world 1601 01:09:11,930 --> 01:09:09,719 you know when you did I've been 1602 01:09:13,669 --> 01:09:11,940 intrigued as the owner of Above Top 1603 01:09:17,809 --> 01:09:13,679 secret.com 1604 01:09:20,990 --> 01:09:17,819 how could I not be and I'm here and I 1605

01:09:31,490 --> 01:09:28,440 I felt really kind of like everybody 1609 01:09:34,729 --> 01:09:31,500 else I felt very calm and peaceful here 1610 01:09:38,090 --> 01:09:34,739 definitely hoping and and sort of 1611 01:09:40,729 --> 01:09:38,100 wishing for something to happen but I'm 1612 01:09:42,829 --> 01:09:40,739 okay that nothing has 1613 01:09:45,289 --> 01:09:42,839 the question 1614 01:09:48,169 --> 01:09:45,299 what is evidence the witness testimony 1615 01:09:50,150 --> 01:09:48,179 is what got me into this I mean Admirals 1616 01:09:52,550 --> 01:09:50,160 generals Pilots I mean that's what 1617 01:09:54,289 --> 01:09:52,560 initially got me into this stuff so yes 1618 01:09:57,229 --> 01:09:54,299 that has weight 1619 01:10:00,830 --> 01:09:57,239 but what I'd love to see you know a 1620 01:10:04,970 --> 01:10:00,840 portal open up right there 1621 01:10:07,669 --> 01:10:04,980 yeah I really would as long as it stays 1622 01:10:09,410 --> 01:10:07,679 right there yeah I guess I'm it's just a 1623 01:10:10,970 --> 01:10:09,420 personal struggle I have it's just I've 1624 01:10:13,550 --> 01:10:10,980 got the point where I just I don't have 1625 01:10:15,830 --> 01:10:13,560 the luxury of disbelief anymore I don't 1626 01:10:17,930 --> 01:10:15,840 know what that means it doesn't mean I 1627 01:10:20,689 --> 01:10:17,940 know anything I just don't have the 1628 01:10:22,610 --> 01:10:20,699 luxury of disbelief and I don't know how 1629 01:10:23,930 --> 01:10:22,620 better to say it it's a great way to put 1630 01:10:25,490 --> 01:10:23,940 it oh I wish there was a better way 1631 01:10:26,689 --> 01:10:25,500 because it doesn't complete it but great 1632 01:10:29,090 --> 01:10:26,699 way to put it 1633 01:10:31,689 --> 01:10:29,100 but the life stories that we're we are 1634 01:10:33,770 --> 01:10:31,699 fed on a daily day basis are so concrete 1635 01:10:34,669 --> 01:10:33,780 and as so 1636 01:10:37,250 --> 01:10:34,679 um 1637 01:10:39,590 --> 01:10:37,260 or a hundred percent when something 1638 01:10:41,270 --> 01:10:39,600 happens outside of those beliefs and the 1639 01:10:42,709 --> 01:10:41,280 stories you've been fed of course you're 1640 01:10:44,270 --> 01:10:42,719 going to question yourself and of course 1641 01:10:47,090 --> 01:10:44,280 you're going to question your own sanity 1642 01:10:49,490 --> 01:10:47,100 and even though I said I believe I think 1643 01:10:51,950 --> 01:10:49,500 that it's also healthy to go hey you 1644 01:10:53,270 --> 01:10:51,960 might be crazy well listen that's I 1645 01:10:55,790 --> 01:10:53,280 think something that I really respect 1646 01:10:57,169 --> 01:10:55,800 out of the way that George has taught me 1647 01:10:59,209 --> 01:10:57,179 to come and approach one of the things 1648 01:11:01,189 --> 01:10:59,219 that George said to me is that every 1649 01:11:03,229 --> 01:11:01,199 Source if it seems good too good to be 1650 01:11:05,330 --> 01:11:03,239 true dig deeper dig deeper and he's 1651 01:11:07,729 --> 01:11:05,340 constantly said that so it's like the 1652 01:11:10,850 --> 01:11:07,739 idea that no matter how much information 1653 01:11:13,430 --> 01:11:10,860 we get you should always have some sort 1654 01:11:16,070 --> 01:11:13,440 of healthy skepticism to keep a clear 1655 01:11:18,169 --> 01:11:16,080 lens you know for what you're doing is 1656 01:11:19,970 --> 01:11:18,179 that what you would would you agree with 1657 01:11:22,010 --> 01:11:19,980 that that is absolutely true I thought 1658 01:11:23,810 --> 01:11:22,020 this trip might be different because of 1659 01:11:25,910 --> 01:11:23,820 Rob because the experiences that he's 1660 01:11:29,450 --> 01:11:25,920 had that maybe this time we'd come and 1661 01:11:34,330 --> 01:11:29,460 they'd say oh well it's Rob we know no 1662 01:11:39,050 --> 01:11:36,709 see last time was me this time you were 1663 01:11:45,050 --> 01:11:39,060 there no I I understand that I'm I'm 1664 01:11:50,450 --> 01:11:47,689 what is it that you are trying to give 1665 01:11:51,890 --> 01:11:50,460 to people about this experience that 1666 01:11:54,410 --> 01:11:51,900 you've gone through for 20 years why do 1667 01:11:56,209 --> 01:11:54,420 you want this out now 1668 01:11:58,430 --> 01:11:56,219 well I mean what I've got out of it is 1669 01:11:59,689 --> 01:11:58,440 sort of what Dr Colin Kelleher got out 1670 01:12:01,970 --> 01:11:59,699 of it and some of the other people with 1671 01:12:05,450 --> 01:12:01,980 nids who are involved in the study both 1672 01:12:06,290 --> 01:12:05,460 as nids and then at as bass 1673 01:12:09,050 --> 01:12:06,300 um 1674 01:12:11,870 --> 01:12:09,060 that it seems to be a an overarching 1675 01:12:13,790 --> 01:12:11,880 lesson of the universe is more 1676 01:12:15,649 --> 01:12:13,800 mysterious and wondrous and complicated 1677 01:12:17,870 --> 01:12:15,659 than we imagine that reality itself 1678 01:12:22,000 --> 01:12:17,880 isn't what it used to be that 1679 01:12:22,010 --> 01:12:28,790 [Music] 1680 01:12:32,990 --> 01:12:31,370 now first and foremost you know it's an 1681 01:12:35,630 --> 01:12:33,000 honor to go there not many people get to 1682 01:12:39,410 --> 01:12:35,640 go there and we had the best time 1683 01:12:40,209 --> 01:12:39,420 because we like each other and it's fun 1684 01:12:43,729 --> 01:12:40,219 um 1685 01:12:45,410 --> 01:12:43,739 and also you get to go to the place that 1686 01:12:50,270 --> 01:12:45,420 you've read so much about and heard so 1687 01:12:51,950 --> 01:12:50,280 many podcasts and interviews about now 1688 01:12:53,570 --> 01:12:51,960 so we're we're just having a great time 1689 01:12:55,430 --> 01:12:53,580 and then it's night time and then 1690 01:12:58,790 --> 01:12:55,440 there's a fire built and we get around 1691 01:13:01,010 --> 01:12:58,800 tell stories fun fun fun fun and the 1692 01:13:03,169 --> 01:13:01,020 homesteads and all that's creepy and uh 1693 01:13:06,590 --> 01:13:03,179 fun fun fun fun fun 1694 01:13:09,410 --> 01:13:06,600 and what actually happens is like I I 1695 01:13:11,930 --> 01:13:09,420 found the most bizarre place while I was 1696 01:13:14,510 --> 01:13:11,940 there was the place that we were 1697 01:13:16,850 --> 01:13:14,520 chilling in most of the day which is 1698 01:13:20,950 --> 01:13:16,860 that the middle Homestead like a prefab 1699 01:13:26,390 --> 01:13:23,810 I found the weirdest place would be in 1700 01:13:28,610 --> 01:13:26,400 there but we're all safe we're all safe 1701 01:13:31,370 --> 01:13:28,620 aren't we because there's like seven of 1702 01:13:34,430 --> 01:13:31,380 us and two of them have got machine guns 1703 01:13:37,810 --> 01:13:34,440 yeah yeah we'll we'll just fire at the 1704 01:13:41,810 --> 01:13:37,820 mess yeah yeah and um so 1705 01:13:44,209 --> 01:13:41,820 my first thought is oh nothing's 1706 01:13:47,630 --> 01:13:44,219 happened my second thought is yeah 1707 01:13:49,910 --> 01:13:47,640 nothing's happened you know because 1708 01:13:51,770 --> 01:13:49,920 um I don't want The Hitchhikers you know

without taking some 1712 01:14:01,790 --> 01:14:00,239 demonic Force home with me yeah we've 1713 01:14:04,430 --> 01:14:01,800 heard all these stories about that stuff 1714 01:14:06,410 --> 01:14:04,440 we you know and you and me we know ever 1715 01:14:08,630 --> 01:14:06,420 no one would want that but that wasn't 1716 01:14:10,370 --> 01:14:08,640 we're not really ex expecting anything 1717 01:14:12,290 --> 01:14:10,380 but we're definitely heard the stories 1718 01:14:13,669 --> 01:14:12,300 yeah we definitely are the story yeah oh 1719 01:14:17,390 --> 01:14:13,679 yeah yeah we know we know the stories 1720 01:14:19,130 --> 01:14:17,400 inside out and so we get in the car to 1721 01:14:22,550 --> 01:14:19,140 go back to the motel 1722 01:14:23,510 --> 01:14:22,560 on the last night and Jeremy's in the 1723 01:14:26,450 --> 01:14:23,520 car 1724 01:14:29,810 --> 01:14:26,460 and there's a sense of relief I have a 1725 01:14:31,790 --> 01:14:29,820 sense of relief and

an experience like 1787 01:17:00,050 --> 01:16:58,199 like you have had with this thing right 1788 01:17:01,430 --> 01:17:00,060 over you I did end up seeing something 1789 01:17:04,370 --> 01:17:01,440 pretty cool once with this guy Dave 1790 01:17:05,990 --> 01:17:04,380 Foley right but um I guess when you when 1791 01:17:07,790 --> 01:17:06,000 you have those experiences maybe they're

--> 01:17:43,739 is it what would you think the more you 1810 01:17:48,470 --> 01:17:46,020 find out the less you know yeah yeah and 1811 01:17:51,050 --> 01:17:48,480 you know I've been a devotee and I 1812 01:17:53,090 --> 01:17:51,060 suppose a student of all of this for the 1813 01:17:54,370 --> 01:17:53,100 longest time and it's been concentrated 1814 01:17:58,850 --> 01:17:54,380 from 1815 01:18:01,910 --> 01:17:58,860 2003 onwards and um I'm none the wiser 1816 01:18:05,229 --> 01:18:01,920 would you go back to Skinwalker yeah 1817 01:18:07,850 --> 01:18:05,239 yeah of course yeah yeah 1818 01:18:09,890 --> 01:18:07,860 you can maybe make that happen yeah I 1819 01:18:11,750 --> 01:18:09,900 mean this you know this stuff that for 1820 01:18:13,729 --> 01:18:11,760 me it was really hard I was like you 1821 01:18:15,649 --> 01:18:13,739 know really nuts and bolts about it like 1822 01:18:17,630 --> 01:18:15,659 hey are there I was interested in Bob 1823 01:18:20,270 --> 01:18:17,640 Lazar like this idea of propulsion 1824 01:18:23,330 --> 01:18:20,280 that's that's all I really you know kind 1825 01:18:26,330 --> 01:18:23,340 of cared about was are there craft that 1826 01:18:28,850 --> 01:18:26,340 are Advanced and like but over these 1827 01:18:30,590 --> 01:18:28,860 years and hearing all of these stories 1828 01:18:33,590 --> 01:18:30,600 and again I haven't experienced anything 1829 01:18:36,110 --> 01:18:33,600 quite like what other people have seen I 1830 01:18:38,750 --> 01:18:36,120 gotta keep my mind open to it that this 1831 01:18:42,410 --> 01:18:38,760 UFO thing that it it's bigger it might 1832 01:18:44,209 --> 01:18:42,420 be bigger than just physical craft I 1833 01:18:47,209 --> 01:18:44,219 don't know the answer I never claim to 1834 01:18:49,970 --> 01:18:47,219 know the answer but it's it's kind of 1835 01:18:52,370 --> 01:18:49,980 I'm reluctantly looking at this subject 1836 01:18:54,890 --> 01:18:52,380 matter and saying I can't dismiss stuff 1837 01:18:56,450 --> 01:18:54,900 just because people shame you for it I 1838 01:18:59,030 --> 01:18:56,460 can't dismiss stuff just because people 1839 01:19:01,130 --> 01:18:59,040 don't fit that in their world view and 1840 01:19:03,649 --> 01:19:01,140 you know it say that it's nonsense I I 1841 01:19:04,729 --> 01:19:03,659 go based upon the experiences I have and 1842 01:19:07,189 --> 01:19:04,739 the people that I know and if I find 1843 01:19:11,330 --> 01:19:07,199 them trustworthy right in this UFO field 1844 01:19:13,970 --> 01:19:11,340 you need to you need to have a good 1845 01:19:15,709 --> 01:19:13,980 sense of who it is that you can trust 1846 01:19:18,290 --> 01:19:15,719 and that's the hardest thing there's so 1847 01:19:20,689 --> 01:19:18,300 much wacky [\h__\h] out there a lot of 1848 01:19:22,970 --> 01:19:20,699 craziness is attached to this it does 1849 01:19:25,010 --> 01:19:22,980 it's like a magnet for mental Insanity 1850 01:19:28,010 --> 01:19:25,020 absolutely because it's so [\h__\h] weird 1851 01:19:30,470 --> 01:19:28,020 but there's just so much evidence that 1852 01:19:33,590 --> 01:19:30,480 there's more to this than just hard 1853 01:19:36,709 --> 01:19:33,600 physical craft and so it's just um yeah 1854 01:19:38,510 --> 01:19:36,719 I I think that where I was in 2003 is 1855 01:19:41,450 --> 01:19:38,520 Little Green Men visit you in spaceships 1856 01:19:43,430 --> 01:19:41,460 yeah I'm no longer in that right it's 1857 01:19:46,790 --> 01:19:43,440 weirder than that it's way weird and 1858 01:19:50,270 --> 01:19:46,800 that and and and maybe way more weird 1859 01:19:52,490 --> 01:19:50,280 than we can comprehend yeah 1860 01:19:54,830 --> 01:19:52,500 um this fell into our laps it felt like 1861 01:19:57,229 --> 01:19:54,840 a gift from heaven when I hear the news 1862 01:19:59,450 --> 01:19:57,239 that Robbie Williams is going to come to 1863 01:20:02,149 --> 01:19:59,460 Las Vegas and have a residency there 1864 01:20:05,870 --> 01:20:02,159 fastest sellout of a residency in the 1865 01:20:08,030 --> 01:20:05,880 history of Las Vegas you're at the win 1866 01:20:11,030 --> 01:20:08,040 um we get to see a couple of those shows 1867 01:20:13,850 --> 01:20:11,040 it was over the top this production who 1868 01:20:16,130 --> 01:20:13,860 was elaborate it was gigantic it was a 1869 01:20:19,370 --> 01:20:16,140 huge success in every way but you didn't 1870 01:20:22,790 --> 01:20:19,380 do it again was it did you overdo it 1871 01:20:26,149 --> 01:20:22,800 what was the covered yeah took the ass 1872 01:20:28,850 --> 01:20:26,159 out of it you know because the 1873 01:20:31,490 --> 01:20:28,860 the plan was to invest in it I don't 1874 01:20:34,070 --> 01:20:31,500 mean financially it just means spend 1875 01:20:36,110 --> 01:20:34,080 more time in North America building up 1876 01:20:37,490 --> 01:20:36,120 this show and 1877 01:20:40,010 --> 01:20:37,500 um you know 1878 01:20:43,910 --> 01:20:40,020 maybe taking it to Caesars and plotting 1879 01:20:45,470 --> 01:20:43,920 up there which is a bigger Arena 1880 01:20:48,350 --> 01:20:45,480 um but that's going to take some work 1881 01:20:51,649 --> 01:20:48,360 because I I'm I'm not known here you 1882 01:20:53,990 --> 01:20:51,659 know but I was invested into my ego 1883 01:20:57,110 --> 01:20:54,000 wanted a bit of America 1884 01:20:59,750 --> 01:20:57,120 um when covid came it just took two 1885 01:21:00,590 --> 01:20:59,760 years off the process 1886 01:21:02,990 --> 01:21:00,600 um 1887 01:21:04,790 --> 01:21:03,000 which was a shame and then by the time 1888 01:21:08,870 --> 01:21:04,800 we come out of covid 1889 01:21:10,910 --> 01:21:08,880 I didn't have the impetus to invest what 1890 01:21:13,430 --> 01:21:10,920 I was going to invest emotionally and 1891 01:21:15,470 --> 01:21:13,440 physically into doing the project we 1892 01:21:18,830 --> 01:21:15,480 keep an eye on your career course from 1893 01:21:21,350 --> 01:21:18,840 afar you'll go to Poland and play to 80 1894 01:21:24,229 --> 01:21:21,360 000 people you're in Argentina Asia 1895 01:21:27,350 --> 01:21:24,239 Australia everywhere you're a huge huge 1896 01:21:29,270 --> 01:21:27,360 success massive crowds it hasn't 1897 01:21:31,130 --> 01:21:29,280 happened here 1898 01:21:32,990 --> 01:21:31,140 um in part I thought in the beginning it 1899 01:21:35,209 --> 01:21:33,000 was because you didn't really want to be 1900 01:21:36,530 --> 01:21:35,219 as well known 1901 01:21:38,750 --> 01:21:36,540 um you wanted to be able to go to a 1902 01:21:40,970 --> 01:21:38,760 restaurant have a hamburger whatever but 1903 01:21:44,689 --> 01:21:40,980 knowing how competitive you are you 1904 01:21:50,090 --> 01:21:47,810 yes and no you know if I did want to 1905 01:21:53,649 --> 01:21:50,100 conquer America 1906 01:21:56,510 --> 01:21:53,659 I would at least attempt it 1907 01:21:58,669 --> 01:21:56,520 you know having a residency at the win 1908 01:22:00,669 --> 01:21:58,679 isn't going to do it 1909 01:22:05,630 --> 01:22:00,679 um basically 1910 01:22:08,450 --> 01:22:05,640 my mental illness and fame and Coke and 1911 01:22:11,630 --> 01:22:08,460 booze was so cute 1912 01:22:14,649 --> 01:22:11,640 at some point I did realize when the 1913 01:22:19,550 --> 01:22:14,659 grown-up was driving the car and not the 1914 01:22:22,250 --> 01:22:19,560 lunatic driving the car the more of what 1915 01:22:23,390 --> 01:22:22,260 I had at that point was not going to be 1916 01:22:29,810 --> 01:22:23,400 good for me 1917 01:22:33,290 --> 01:22:29,820 and I spent a January in Los Angeles 23 1918 01:22:34,610 --> 01:22:33,300 years ago and I could live my life I 1919 01:22:36,770 --> 01:22:34,620 could get you know it's like I could 1920 01:22:38,270 --> 01:22:36,780 enjoy the fruits of my labor and not be 1921 01:22:40,310 --> 01:22:38,280 marbed when you go it's not even the 1922 01:22:42,890 --> 01:22:40,320 marbles you know it's like 1923 01:22:45,350 --> 01:22:42,900 there's a lot of people in Britain but 1924 01:22:47,830 --> 01:22:45,360 there is a network of if you see someone 1925 01:22:51,410 --> 01:22:47,840 say it you know and if you see somebody 1926 01:22:54,050 --> 01:22:51,420 Twitter it now or tell the tabloids or 1927 01:22:56,750 --> 01:22:54,060 da da da and it seemed that I couldn't 1928 01:22:59,630 --> 01:22:56,760 you know sometimes my thoughts were in 1929 01:23:02,990 --> 01:22:59,640 the newspaper the next day it was 1930 01:23:05,390 --> 01:23:03,000 it was weird it was just so weird and I 1931 01:23:07,070 --> 01:23:05,400 just had to take myself out of that 1932 01:23:10,729 --> 01:23:07,080 pressure cooker so I came for one 1933 01:23:12,169 --> 01:23:10,739 January went back into it next January I 1934 01:23:13,610 --> 01:23:12,179 come back again and at the end of 1935 01:23:16,550 --> 01:23:13,620 January I'm like what am I going back 1936 01:23:18,590 --> 01:23:16,560 for I'm going to live here and it's kind 1937 01:23:22,189 --> 01:23:18,600 of then that I was like 1938 01:23:25,850 --> 01:23:22,199 so I've got this cash I've sold these 1939 01:23:28,669 --> 01:23:25,860 records I play these venues 1940 01:23:33,229 --> 01:23:28,679 what right and it's not brought me 1941 01:23:34,729 --> 01:23:33,239 happiness if I do this in the states if 1942 01:23:36,649 --> 01:23:34,739 you're famous in America you're famous 1943 01:23:39,530 --> 01:23:36,659 in Papua New Guinea you know you're 1944 01:23:41,390 --> 01:23:39,540 famous in Timbuktu and I did recognize 1945 01:23:43,790 --> 01:23:41,400 that Fame was having a detrimental 1946 01:23:47,930 --> 01:23:43,800 effect on my health so what I decided to 1947 01:23:50,450 --> 01:23:47,940 do was move here and become Anonymous 1948 01:23:52,370 --> 01:23:50,460 um and that worked out for me my ego and 1949 01:23:54,709 --> 01:23:52,380 my competitive nature Still Remains in 1950 01:23:56,930 --> 01:23:54,719 the back of my head but then when the 1951 01:23:59,090 --> 01:23:56,940 kids come and I'm a different person now 1952 01:24:01,130 --> 01:23:59,100 so well maybe I'll have a look at Vegas 1953 01:24:02,930 --> 01:24:01,140 maybe I'll see what Vegas has to offer 1954 01:24:04,850 --> 01:24:02,940 what I have to offer it and what it can 1955 01:24:06,590 --> 01:24:04,860 do for me and if something comes of it 1956 01:24:09,229 --> 01:24:06,600 something comes from it and if something 1957 01:24:10,729 --> 01:24:09,239 doesn't it's okay nothing ventured you 1958 01:24:12,709 --> 01:24:10,739 know a lot ventured maybe something 1959 01:24:15,290 --> 01:24:12,719 gained 1960 01:24:17,330 --> 01:24:15,300 um my energy has now moved on from that 1961 01:24:20,229 --> 01:24:17,340 you know as I I want to build my own 1962 01:24:23,750 --> 01:24:20,239 hotel and I'm building my own hotel 1963 01:24:26,390 --> 01:24:23,760 hotels you know hopefully if it's a 1964 01:24:30,010 --> 01:24:26,400 success I will replicate what I'm about 1965 01:24:34,370 --> 01:24:30,020 to do residencies don't exist in Dubai 1966 01:24:36,770 --> 01:24:34,380 they should you know and um I want to be 1967 01:24:38,630 --> 01:24:36,780 the man to start that it's easier for 1968 01:24:41,330 --> 01:24:38,640 your fans to get to see you from Europe 1969 01:24:44,149 --> 01:24:41,340 to Dubai than to get to Las Vegas well 1970 01:24:47,030 --> 01:24:44,159 also it's it's easier for performers to 1971 01:24:50,270 --> 01:24:47,040 be in one place you know and once 1972 01:24:52,010 --> 01:24:50,280 they've rung out Vegas whereas you know 1973 01:24:54,350 --> 01:24:52,020 and they can stay there they can stay in

01:30:53,340 you called yourself scum in one show 2114 01:30:59,510 --> 01:30:56,400 there was uh in one song it was socio 2115 01:31:01,250 --> 01:30:59,520 meaning sociopath and in your lyrics is 2116 01:31:03,950 --> 01:31:01,260 it a mood where I'm gonna slap myself 2117 01:31:06,290 --> 01:31:03,960 around here and there or uh well my 2118 01:31:09,470 --> 01:31:06,300 songs are all biographical and I write 2119 01:31:11,570 --> 01:31:09,480 about what I know because the you know 2120 01:31:15,050 --> 01:31:11,580 there's not a lot that I know other than 2121 01:31:19,129 --> 01:31:15,060 me and a bit about UFOs 2122 01:31:21,830 --> 01:31:19,139 um so there is a a intricate dance that 2123 01:31:24,770 --> 01:31:21,840 I do with myself and it depends which 2124 01:31:29,470 --> 01:31:24,780 wolf you want to feed and uh whether 2125 01:31:33,950 --> 01:31:29,480 that's the empathic kind generous 2126 01:31:37,810 --> 01:31:33,960 loving spirit that I can inhabit or the 2127 01:31:41,149 --> 01:31:37,820 other side which is self-lacerating 2128 01:31:43,490 --> 01:31:41,159 self-sabotaging uh lack of self-worth 2129 01:31:47,090 --> 01:31:43,500 low self-esteem 2130 01:31:51,229 --> 01:31:47,100 um Dom you know there's uh there is a 2131 01:31:54,709 --> 01:31:51,239 there is a dark aspect to how I feel and 2132 01:31:57,830 --> 01:31:54,719 think about myself and the dichotomy of 2133 01:32:00,290 --> 01:31:57,840 both of them naturally appears in my 2134 01:32:03,530 --> 01:32:00,300 lyrics because like I say I write about 2135 01:32:07,250 --> 01:32:05,570 um let love be your energy it's one of 2136 01:32:10,250 --> 01:32:07,260 my favorite songs of yours because it's 2137 01:32:12,350 --> 01:32:10,260 so beetle-esque did

lack of self-worth so 2225 01:35:40,430 --> 01:35:37,199 there's no great punch the sky moment 2226 01:35:42,410 --> 01:35:40,440 when it happens but what does happen is 2227 01:35:44,450 -->

to be but a lot of 2233 01:36:05,030 --> 01:36:00,659 who I am is wrapped up in who I am 2234 01:36:08,990 --> 01:36:05,040 and who I am is uh belongs a lot to the 2235 01:36:11,330 --> 01:36:09,000 general public in places that no one 2236 01:36:13,669 --> 01:36:11,340 of my favorite songs of yours I'm not 2237 01:36:15,169 --> 01:36:13,679 sure that American audiences know it but 2238 01:36:17,990 --> 01:36:15,179 run it Wild 2239 01:36:19,850 --> 01:36:18,000 terrific when you write these songs do 2240 01:36:23,149 --> 01:36:19,860 you know if it's going to hit or not 2241 01:36:24,950 --> 01:36:23,159 like Angels Angels is like this gigantic 2242 01:36:26,930 --> 01:36:24,960 it's an incredible as you're writing 2243 01:36:29,149 --> 01:36:26,940 that song do you know this is going to 2244 01:36:31,669 --> 01:36:29,159 be a big one well at the time that I 2245 01:36:33,770 --> 01:36:31,679 wrote Angels there was a lot there was a 2246 01:36:36,410 --> 01:36:33,780 huge gap between 2247 01:36:38,810 --> 01:36:36,420 um it being a hit and me being able to 2248 01:36:41,750 --> 01:36:38,820 facilitate how it becomes a hit because 2249 01:36:43,550 --> 01:36:41,760 what happened was I left the band I was 2250 01:36:46,669 --> 01:36:43,560 cool for three seconds for splitting up 2251 01:36:49,970 --> 01:36:46,679 a boy band and then I Disappeared into 2252 01:36:51,830 --> 01:36:49,980 you know lager and cocaine and was 2253 01:36:54,470 --> 01:36:51,840 turning up to the opening of an envelope 2254 01:36:56,330 --> 01:36:54,480 and I became kind of the book of jokes 2255 01:36:59,270 --> 01:36:56,340 and 2256 01:37:01,189 --> 01:36:59,280 um my future didn't look bright 2257 01:37:03,649 --> 01:37:01,199 but while my future was not looking 2258 01:37:06,350 --> 01:37:03,659 bright in the media I was writing songs 2259 01:37:10,430 --> 01:37:06,360 and I knew that I had something 2260 01:37:12,169 --> 01:37:10,440 incredibly special with this song Angels 2261 01:37:17,330 --> 01:37:12,179 um but 2262 01:37:19,970 --> 01:37:17,340 were the media and was radio going to 2263 01:37:22,970 --> 01:37:19,980 facilitate the opportunity for that song 2264 01:37:25,010 --> 01:37:22,980 to be a success I didn't know 2265 01:37:27,649 --> 01:37:25,020 as it happens 2266 01:37:31,490 --> 01:37:27,659 the power of the song 2267 01:37:32,810 --> 01:37:31,500 happened anyway you know so yes I knew 2268 01:37:36,830 --> 01:37:32,820 that there was something incredibly 2269 01:37:40,189 --> 01:37:36,840 special I've probably written 2270 01:37:42,410 --> 01:37:40,199 700 800 songs since then I've never felt 2271 01:37:43,070 --> 01:37:42,420 that way since 2272 01:37:46,490 --> 01:37:43,080 um 2273 01:37:48,410 --> 01:37:46,500 I've never I've never managed to re you 2274 01:37:50,330 --> 01:37:48,420 because for the American audience there 2275 01:37:54,709 --> 01:37:50,340 weren't No Angels but for everywhere 2276 01:37:57,770 --> 01:37:54,719 else it exists outside of me it's um now 2277 01:38:01,910 --> 01:37:57,780 it doesn't belong to me it belongs 2278 01:38:03,830 --> 01:38:01,920 somewhere in ethereal place that um has 2279 01:38:06,350 --> 01:38:03,840 done something bigger than I could ever 2280 01:38:08,510 --> 01:38:06,360 imagine it's affected a lot of people I 2281 01:38:10,970 --> 01:38:08,520 mean your music has but that song you 2282 01:38:12,590 --> 01:38:10,980 see people crying and fainting over that 2283 01:38:14,030 --> 01:38:12,600 song like what what do you think it is 2284 01:38:16,790 --> 01:38:14,040 in that song that affected so many 2285 01:38:18,830 --> 01:38:16,800 people well you know people think that 2286 01:38:21,169 --> 01:38:18,840 it's about my mum or people think that 2287 01:38:23,330 --> 01:38:21,179 it's about uh 2288 01:38:24,709 --> 01:38:23,340 somebody or something it's actually 2289 01:38:27,350 --> 01:38:24,719 about angels 2290 01:38:29,750 --> 01:38:27,360

idea of angels 2297 01:38:48,830 --> 01:38:46,260 um now it's not lost on me 2298 01:38:49,669 --> 01:38:48,840 that the most powerful song I've ever 2299 01:38:52,729 --> 01:38:49,679 had 2300

Rob has emerged not exactly 2315 01:39:27,050 --> 01:39:24,659 unscathed but solid on the other end 2316 01:39:30,830 --> 01:39:27,060 we're so happy for you thank you very 2317 01:39:31,810 -->

01:39:37,920 or my life is that you spend the second 2321 01:39:42,490 --> 01:39:39,840 20 years of your life figuring out the 2322 01:39:46,430 --> 01:39:42,500 first 20 years but then what happens is 2323 01:39:47,689 --> 01:39:46,440 once I've hit my stride the wheels start 2324 01:39:49,550 --> 01:39:47,699 falling off for the people that have 2325 01:39:52,629 --> 01:39:49,560 gone before me it's under health 2326 01:39:56,390 --> 01:39:52,639 deteriorates of the people that I love 2327 01:39:59,149 --> 01:39:56,400 so you know the next sort of phase of 2328 01:40:03,110 --> 01:39:59,159 personal growth is dealing with grief 2329 01:40:04,310 --> 01:40:03,120 and dealing with illness and I I find 2330 01:40:09,890 --> 01:40:04,320 the 2331 01:40:11,810 --> 01:40:09,900 brutality of existence 2332 01:40:13,910 --> 01:40:11,820 [Laughter] 2333 01:40:16,490 --> 01:40:13,920 there's the Tabloid headline for 2334 01:40:18,350 --> 01:40:16,500 tomorrow and then in a British press the 2335 01:40:19,970 --> 01:40:18,360 great quote I I gotta say man I really 2336 01:40:22,129 --> 01:40:19,980 appreciate it I I've learned a lot from 2337 01:40:23,810 --> 01:40:22,139 you through our friendship uh just you 2338 01:40:24,950 --> 01:40:23,820 know when we talk and everything you've 2339 01:40:27,470 --> 01:40:24,960 been through a lot of things in your 2340 01:40:29,810 --> 01:40:27,480 life that might have been extreme but 2341 01:40:32,149 --> 01:40:29,820 somehow you've been able to ground 2342 01:40:34,010 --> 01:40:32,159 yourself and your life and the way that 2343 01:40:35,270 --> 01:40:34,020 you live it I really have learned a lot 2344 01:40:37,129 --> 01:40:35,280 from what I've been through some hard 2345 01:40:39,470 --> 01:40:37,139 times if I've asked you you've you've 2346 01:40:41,270 --> 01:40:39,480 it's almost just like you've experienced 2347 01:40:43,310 --> 01:40:41,280 depths of that that you can convey 2348 01:40:45,290 --> 01:40:43,320 really easily to me a way to look at it 2349 01:40:46,850 --> 01:40:45,300 like those guys are cons [\h__\h] them you 2350 01:40:47,990 --> 01:40:46,860 know whatever it might be that I need to 2351 01:40:50,510 --> 01:40:48,000 hear at that time and I want to thank 2352 01:40:51,890 --> 01:40:50,520 you for that so I think the way that we 2353 01:40:53,510 --> 01:40:51,900 influence people sometimes it's in big 2354 01:40:55,430 --> 01:40:53,520 ways like with your music and the way it 2355 01:40:57,350 --> 01:40:55,440 makes people feel but also the big 2356 01:40:58,790 --> 01:40:57,360 influence we have is when we've walked a 2357 01:41:00,290 --> 01:40:58,800 road like what I've learned from George 2358 01:41:02,090 --> 01:41:00,300 like you've walked Road and you can
